My Girls

[Shoelover]

This is my first try at posting pictures on the forum. Not sure how to do it so please be patient. These are pics of my girls. The one on the swing and the waterslide are just recent. The two fall pictures are from 05 & 04. I love to take pictures, and my kids are usually what I photograph. I am interested in improving my technique and would love any advice. Right now I am using a Canon A620. I would like to have an SLR and some point, but finances play a big role in that purchase. For editing purposes I have Photoshop Elements So I'm a beginner and wanting to learn and improve.

This was taken at my parents' house about a month ago. She is my oldest(13 years old) and is very photogenic! (She's also taken an interest in photography, so I may post a few of her pics sometime)

Fall '05 I have been taking my girls out each fall to take pictures. I'm usually much happier with them then the ones I get at a department store portrait studio.

This is my youngest (9 years old). She's a little camera shy, so candids seem to be the best for her or I end up with a hand in front of the face or her turning away.


Thanks for any comments or advice you may have.
